Generous Peace Lyrics

Verse1 I see him making those faces; trying his best to break my nerve But I’m calm in the face of anger and I don’t reply to ugly words

If they ask me why I’m silent; they say in this world you gotta take respect I say gentleman I’m like incense the more you burn the more I’m fragrant

Chorus We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I fight for what’s right Let’s go a little higher

Cause I was born you see And I was raised to be I lace the lines of these times with Generous Peace

Verse 2 There’s a thin line between virtue and fear though they look alike Both demand restraint and it’s enough that I know where I stand in line

I’m not scared of you I’m scared of me and I live by controlling my fool Cause you’re a fool enough for the both of us but I still try to find the good in you

Chorus We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I fight for what’s right Let’s go a little higher

Cause I was born you see And I was raised to be I lace the lines of these times with Generous Peace

Bridge I know it’s hard to listen to the words you just can’t stand Gonna take more than a fist to enlighten an ignorant man Don’t you see how we fear the patient eyes of a lion Don’t you see how we fear those lions in their silence

We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I fight for what’s right Let’s go a little higher We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I’m gonna fight for what’s right

We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I fight for what’s right Let’s go a little higher

Cause I was born you see And I was raised to be I lace the lines of these times with Generous

We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I fight for what’s right Let’s go a little higher

We can fight but we don’t need to fight tonight Yeah, we’ll put out the fire If I’m gonna fight then I’m gonna fight for what’s right
